The San Francisco Giants' struggles continue, and it's not just the team's on-field performance that's got fans frustrated. In this episode, Kerry Crowley fills in for Murph, discussing the team's disappointing season and the pressure on President of Baseball Operations Buster Posey. The Giants are 14 games under .500, and it's clear that the team's struggles date back to the end of the Brian Sabean and Bobby Evans tenure.

The conversation touches on the team's ownership, the lack of a rebuild, and the pressure on Posey to turn things around. The Giants have a winning tradition and a loyal fan base, but it's hard to ignore the fact that they've been stuck in a rut for years. The team's prospects are looking up, with a strong farm system and young players like Bryce Eldridge showing promise. However, it's unclear if the team's current management is doing enough to capitalize on this potential.

The discussion also delves into the team's recent trades, including the Rafael Devers deal, and how it's affected the team's performance. The Giants' ownership has been criticized for not going over the luxury tax threshold in certain seasons, which has limited the team's ability to make big moves. It's clear that the team needs a change, but it's unclear if that change will come from within or from a new ownership group.
